Joe was never in his corner. Joe's guy was Jeb Bush. But he had all the candidates on, incl. Trump (who usually appeared via phone).

Joe then started talking about Trump being unfit for office, etc., at which point Trump started trashing Joe in twitter, and then he refused to go on anymore, and Joe refused to have him on, anymore. That was in 2016.

MJ was one of the few shows that would NOT have Trump on. But Trump cont'd to secretly watch the show...you could tell by some of his tweets.

Joe is a regular Repub. He's not one of the wacko wingnuts in the Freedom Caucus or the Trumpers.
